Read for fun. I had a great time writing this, and I’m honored you’ve taken an interest in it.
There are lots of fictional details, including many liberties taken with the characters’ professions.
A meticulously planned encounter, a beautiful and tender dream,
a complete deception, a parting of body and soul.
In a dim basement, a man is held beneath layer upon layer of chains.
He approached him in the name of revenge, making him fall in love, depend on him, and trust him. Then… he destroyed him.
With his revenge complete, Gu Jinzhi thought he should feel satisfied, even happy, but he didn’t. Watching Ying Xingwan keep him at arm’s length, he thought he should lock him away at his side for the rest of his life, making him atone for his sins day and night.
But seeing the hatred and disgust in Ying Xingwan’s eyes made Gu Jinzhi feel as if his heart were being torn apart.
Reason and emotion warred within him, while hatred and his conscience put him on trial.
And yet, hopelessly, he had fallen in love with his enemy.
